I'm using Microsoft Word 2003 and I'm wondering if there is a way to take text that I've entered into one portion of a document and have it repeated in other portions. Sort of like, if I enter a persons name into a given space at the beginning of the document could I have that same name repeated in different places throughout the document. Then if I were to change it in one place it would change in all of the places.

Basically I'm looking to be able to set up certain areas of the document as variables and then just repeat the variables in other places. When the variable's value changes it would change all over. I've got a fairly large book from Microsoft press on Word 2003 and I can't seem to find a way to do this. Help?!
